I think there's a lot that goes on behind doors between us and Raiola. Sensible money would be a manager he represents also coming in over the summer. Whathisface at Wolves is one, as I think Silva might be?

Mendes is the agent at Wolves I think, we were in negotiations with him over Fonseca too? But its a good point, it appears you have to get in bed with the devil if you want to get anywhere.

Not as nailed on as Sky make it look as according to reports here PSV have not been approached officially yet! BUT!!!!! According to a friend who has contacts at PSV they are preparing for him to leave and are considering promoting John de Jong as his replacement! I really hope this comes off as Brands is a massive improvement on what we have at the club now! I also cannot see him working with Allardyce, so that also gives me hope!
